The original manuscript of this groundbreaking work was composed while the author was politically imprisoned in the 1930''s. It was first
published in 1965 and has been reprinted several times. This is the pioneering classic English-Thai
lexicon used by both native Thais and non-Thai learners of the Thai language.
The uniqueness of this
dictionary lies in the prolific use of example sentences in both Thai and English which provide the reader with an exact usage model. This is precisely why the
author chose the name "New Model..." as part of the title.
The Library
Edition is published in hardcover in two volumes. There is a softcover edition available with several improvements.
ISBN 974-08-2366-1
